There's been a lot of controversy surrounding the new “Fantastic Four” reboot, although the word “new” is not really accurate anymore since the project has been going on for some time. There were many issues with the casting, with the script, with the director, but now it looks like it's all coming together.

Fans are excited to see what the reboot is going to bring to the table, so this leaked photo should be interesting. The image was leaked by Geek Pride and it shows the main villain of the film, the nefarious Doctor Doom, standing or rather floating in the middle of the shot as the Human Torch swoops in from behind.

The Dr. Doom uniform looks similar to the one he wears in the comic books, as well as to the one he wore in the previous movies, so there's really no change there. The Human Torch on the other hand looks … well, lit up. What's interesting is the fact that his flaming look is achieved with his suit not just CGI.

The film is supposed to be out in cinemas on July 19, 2015, and it features Miles Teller as Reed Richards, Jamie Bell as Ben Grimm, Kate Mara as Susan Storm, and Michael B. Jordan as the Human Torch. Meanwhile, Toby Kebbell stars as Dr. Doom.

The plot is being kept under tight wraps but it has been mentioned that the movie will be a coming of age story, as well as an origin story. “We're definitely telling a younger story that the original films did,” said Simon Kinberg.

UPDATE 12.09.2014: We had to remove the leaked photo due to a copyright claim from Twentieth Century Fox Film Corporation.
